Firewing sat in the chair next to Megatrons berth; her servo gripping his tightly, looking over at Cobalt as he sat on a berth holding Firefall. She smiled as Cobalt pulled silly faces at the sparkling; who giggled in response, his tiny servos reaching towards the larger mech. It had been two weeks since she'd sparked the little silver and red sparkling and the whole crew had been very supportive, having taken time to spend with Firefall. It warmed her spark to know the whole crew loved her sparkling already, the tiny seekerling having stolen the spark of everyone who met him.

She looked back at her mate, her servo rubbing up his arm. "He's growing really quickly. Hook believes the seeker programming has increased Firefalls development" she started, her optics turning back to Cobalt and Firefall as the sparkling laughed at the larger mechs antics. "Hook thinks he'll be walking soon, primus forbid" she giggled at the thought of chasing the silver and red sparkling through the halls of the base. "Won't be much longer after that, before he'll be flying" she whispered as she brought his servo to her lips, planting a kiss on the back of it. "I need you" she finished as she lowered his servo again. "I can't do this without you".

She stood from the berth, kissing Megatrons helm as she did, before turning towards Cobalt. "Come on Cobalt, we'll head to the flight deck" she started, as she approached the blue mech. "The seekers should nearly be there by now. And you need to catch you on some training" she said, as she looked at the nearly rebuilt and upgraded jetpack on the mechs back.

"Sure thing 'Wing" the blue mech said, as he stood, carefully handing the sparkling to her.

The journey to the flight deck was uneventful, the halls being mostly empty, which made the femme thank primus. But once they arrived at the flight deck, the femme suddenly found herself the centre of attention, much to the femmes dislike… But she knew the seekers were excited to meet Firefall.

"Ooohhh, he's so cute" Skywarp squealed like a femme, causing Firewing to smile.

"He's adorable" Thundercracker said with a little more etiquette then his purple companion.

"He beautiful" Nacelle said, as he reached a servo to rub a digit over the tiny helm. The action caused the small sparkling to vocalise happily, reaching tiny servos to the multi-coloured seeker.

"He looks just like you and Megatron" Starscream said, as he tickled a digit under the sparkling chin. "He's perfect" he said, as he watched Firefall grab his digit, with a happy squeal, instantly trying to put it in his mouth.

Firewing watched her son interact with the large seekers around them, taking in the innocent curiosity of the small sparkling. "He is" the femme said. "I just wish Megatron was here to see this" she whispered sadly, causing the seeker commander to lay a servo on her shoulder.

"He's strong" the seeker started. "The strongest mech I know. He'll pull through" the tri-coloured seeker stated.

"Can I hold him?" Skywarp suddenly asked, fidgeting nervously.

Firewing smiled at the purple seeker. "Of course" she said, as she carefully handed the sparkling to the seeker. She watched as the sparkling giggled reaching servos to grasp the larger seeker. Her smiled faulted, as her thoughts went to her mate. She tried to hide the tears that threatened to fall as she thought of the possibility of losing her mate.

Starscream looked at the femme; who was trying hard to hold herself together, as the other seekers cooed over the silver and red sparkling. "He's going to be ok" he said, as he pulled the smaller seeker into his arms. "He promised to love and protect you forever. He will not break that promise" the larger seeker said, as he rubbed the femmes back. "He'll come back to you" he finished, allowing the femme to cry into his chest.

Suddenly Firefall started to cry, causing the femme to pull away from the tri-coloured seeker to approach the sparkling. "He's hungry" she said, as she gently took him from Skywarps arms. "I should probably leave you to it anyway" she said, holding Firefall to her chestplates. "I will see you all later" she said walking towards the exit.

Firewing sat on her berth, holding Firefall to her chestplates, as he drank from her feeding tubes. She rubbed the sparklings wing nubs as he consumed his fill. She smiled as Firefall clenched his servos, looking for something to hold onto. Firewing moved her servo from the sparkling wing nubs to his servos, allowing him to grab one of her digits. She loved these intimate moments, and cherished the joy that Firefall brought into her life. "I will always love you" she whispered to the sparkling, before planting a kiss to his forehelm.

She continued to watch the sparkling as his optics began to flicker with exhaustion. She smiled as he stopped feeding, almost laughing as he yawned widely, thinking how adorable the sight was. "Alright little mechling, it's time for a nap" she cooed down at the tiny seeker. She stood up, walking over towards the cot; that the Constructicons built for her, before placing the tiny mechling in it. "Rest my dear spark. I will be here when you wake" she whispered, as the sparkling fell into recharge.

Firewing watched the sparkling for a few more moments, rubbing a digit down the tiny body, before moving towards the berth. She sat on the berth, pulling a datapad from her subspace, going through some reports from the day before. She wanted to catch up on some work, even though Hook had told her she needed rest. The medic had worried about her overworking herself, but she simply wanted to make sure she kept up with the workload, so Megatron didn't have any once he woke… If he woke.

She suddenly paused at the thought of her mate, her spark clenching at that thought. She tried to think positive, but after ten weeks with no sign of waking, she wondered if her mate had the strength to fight his stasis. She sobbed miserably, placing the datapad on the berth side table, as she lied back on the berth. She rolled onto her side, curling in on herself, not bothering to stop the tears as they fell. She cried her spark out until her systems forced her into a restless recharge.
